I can place exactly where I first heard this album: in the Virgin Megastore in Oxford Street, where they were playing With or Without You. I went straight to the record rack and bought a copy. For me, this has always been U2's finest moment with some great songs and an interestingly thick production that responds well to great playback sound. In fact the double 45rpm set is well worth buying. A solid 9/10 and I should play it more often.
